PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE PROGRAMComplete 88 days of professional teaching placements in your course. You’ll be able to see how your academic learning makes a difference in practice, and how your professional experience gives meaning to the academic knowledge you are learning.
The program is essentially a three-way partnership between you, your supervising teachers and your UTS lecturers. You’ll develop as a teacher through a sequence of experiences that build on your earlier teaching and learning achievements, and that intersect with other aspects of your coursework. The program emphasises ongoing self-evaluation, which is an important part of effective teaching practice and being a lifelong learner. You’ll gain the ability to diagnose, negotiate and act on a range of issues in the classroom and beyond.
ADRIAN EVANGELISTA Secondary Education Major
“UTS offered immediate, integrated and continuous practical teaching experiences. In addition, being a technology university, I am able to take advantage of the technology available. The practical experiences are definitely a highlight. Within the first month of the degree, we were offered the opportunity to observe a classroom. This practical experience is built upon by the other subjects we complete and is a major aspect of our degree from beginning to end. These practical experiences allow us to put the theory in to practice and obtain immediate feedback.”
The program is divided into two parts:
– Campus-based studies, where you’ll investigate a range of pedagogical issues, skills and procedures that will contribute to your professional practice.
– Professional experience in schools, where you’ll apply your skills in a real-world educational setting.
You can also apply to undertake an international professional experience program overseas in your third year of study.

VADIMS BRODSKIS Bachelor of Science in IT, Bachelor of Arts in International Studies (Japan)
“My exchange year in Japan was amazing. I would recommend it to every student who comes (to UTS); if you can go overseas for exchange it will open up your horizons. I didn’t really have much of an idea about other cultures aside from my own Latvian–Russian culture and Australia. Now I’m confident that if I go there again for work, for traveling or for study, I know what I need to do, I know how to get it done.”
SALLY HUNT Bachelor of Laws, Bachelor of Arts in International Studies (Chile)
“Throwing myself in the deep end in Chile taught me a lot about what I am capable of. Living within a culture teaches you so much more than reading about it from the other side of the world. I became part of an international family that taught me about tolerance, interesting cultural differences, and about the remarkable uniform base of human understanding. The new perspectives gained through making cultural comparisons and gaining a global understanding are invaluable, and I know my experiences will be a significant part of who I am for the rest of my life.”

“I chose this double degree at UTS as I am passionate about education and have a love for Europe. I loved the many great friends I made, the wonderful places I travelled to and the experience of living in a beautiful country. The entire year was full of adventure and excitement I could not have dreamt of in Australia. It truly has changed my life. It was really rewarding to see my language develop and progress through the year. I hope my degree will give me the opportunity to work in the education field with an international perspective.”

KATYA DOBINSON Major: Legal Studies Graduate Consultant
“The practical assignments and internship were also a major factor for my selection of the UTS Bachelor of Global Studies over other international studies degrees offered at other universities.
I enjoyed the practical assignments as they brought a ‘real-life’ element to the degree, which not only expanded my knowledge but also taught me practical skills that prepared me for the realities of the workforce.”
CORE SUBJECTSGlobalisation in Historical Perspective
This subject introduces students to the main concepts, topics and historical pivot points in the development of globalisation, understood as constituted by cultural, economic and political processes. Some of the key topics include: empires and the development of the nation-state system, mercantilism, the Industrial Revolution, and Fordism.
Contemporary Global Economy
A global approach to world economic activity focuses on how changing interrelations among states, firms and people – as innovators and policy makers – have produced new ideas, networks, and spaces of economic activity. This subject gives particular attention to transnational corporations and their ‘world brands’, service industries in the world and global cities, the feminisation of the workforce, the new international division of labour and issues of inequality.
Cultures of Globalisation
Cultures of Globalisation calls on students to explore the cultural processes, forms and implications of globalisation. Students use case studies to parse the ways that localised cultures, including Indigenous cultures, can be both enriched and threatened by processes of globalisation and will reflect on the role of global institutions and organisations in these processes.
Global Governance
Students work with interdisciplinary approaches to examine how pressing global issues, including climate change, transnational migration, economic inequality and the ‘new terrorism’ are managed and governed through intersections of regulatory regimes, multilateral institutions, non-governmental organisations, social movements and citizen actions.
Global Problem Solving
In this subject students tackle a real-world global problem for an external organisation. Learning is done in seminars where students focus on solutions to the problem in small groups, utilising approaches from their majors. At the end of the session students make written and oral presentations of their solutions to the external organisation.
International Internship
Students complete a three to four-week internship, practicum or entrepreneurship placement with an international organisation and participate in pre-departure and post-experience workshops. Through the experience of living and working abroad, the subject enhances students’ communication skills, understanding of another culture and society and intercultural awareness.
Global Work Project
Students undertake a substantial work placement (50 hours minimum) with an organisation in the Sydney area that allows them to better understand the effects of globalisation on the workplace and the work organisations do. Students independently research the global aspects of work in the organisation in which they are placed.

Academic English Program
This program is all about developing your English skills for use in a university context. Whether you’re an undergraduate or postgraduate student, this subject can help you build confidence when it comes to communicating academic ideas in written and spoken academic communication.

You’ll study a range of written and spoken academic texts, and spend some time uncovering the hidden rules and tricks of the trade involved in using academic English successfully. You’ll also spend a bit of time practising your academic English as it relates to your field of study.
STUDY PATTERNThe program involves studying one subject concurrently with your professional degree, offered in the Autumn, Spring and Summer sessions.
ASSESSMENTYou’ll undertake three assessments in this subject:
– A reflective task on your personal experiences of academic communication
– An analysis of your own academic writing processes
– A choice of either a plan and rationale for a hypothetical seminar in your subject area, or an analysis of spoken interaction in the academic classroom
ADMISSION REQUIREMENTSIf you’re a current undergraduate student at UTS, you can apply to study this program. Note that you’ll need to be already enrolled in a UTS degree before you can apply – this is an elective subject, not a standalone degree, so it will become part of your existing course load.

If you achieve a Band 1 OPELA result, you’ll receive individual advice from UTS about enrolling in Academic English.

You’ll also have to submit both an EAS application for financial hardship and an SRS application via UAC.
